Ya Ya, It's Open.

The new Ya Ya's EuroBistro officially opens today.  I went down this morning, hoping for an early lunch... unfortunately that wasn't in the cards.  While the restaurant opens tonight at 5 p.m., lunch service begins Wednesday.  Barring any unforseen craziness, the restaurant should be open tonight and Tuesday night... I was told during my brief visit that many members of the staff are being put up in a nearby hotel to make sure the opening goes off smoothly.

I beg pardon for not giving you a review tonight... we're erring on the side of caution with the slick roads.  Would love your impressions, if you do decide to venture out.

I don't do impressions.

Got a dinner party to cook for. Assuming the ice doesn't kill my guests. Time to start chopping.

We dined at Ya Ya's last night and it was wonderful. The place was packed and it took about 45 minutes to get seated. We had a few drinks at there nice bar while we waited for our table. The palce has modern but yet a warm decor. The staff was polite and happy to see us. Our food was great and they have a diverse menu of many choices you normally don't see at chain places. I never felt like I was at a chain place the whole time we were there. We had seafood entrees having MD Crab Cakes and Dover Sea Scallops. I was not impressed by the size of the cakes but they had plenty of crab and tasted great. The Scallops served over orzo pasta and lump crab in a reduction sauce was also wonderully prepared. We will defintely be returning to Ya Ya's soon. I give it 4 of out 5 stars. It's great to have this kind of place West LR.
